SEPTEMBER

 

 

Karate is the first sport in the recent “Around the rings” Pole for Olympic games inclusion with 54%. More than half the voters want karate to be the new sport for the Programme of the Olympic games 2012

This result of this ATR pole is a small confirmation to the popularity of karate around the world. WKF continues its efforts for karate to enter the Olympic Programme.

 

 

ONLINE-REGISTRATION FOR DELEGATIONS

You can register your delegation on-line (the applications will be accepted during the registration period for any WKF championships)
NOTE: You will need your country code to log-in. The codes will be given to all the country-members during the congress in Mexico. If you like to register for the upcoming world championships please contact secretariat (secretariat@wkf.net) office to get your code.

This new tool now available to all WKF members, as it is the registration on line, constitutes a magnificent facility that today very few International Sports Federations have available, proving once again that WKF keeps not only a privileged position in the international domain but also that we continue progressing and showing everywhere what WKF and karate represent worldwide.
 
I want to especially thank the General Secretary and his team for this tremendous achievement. A few years ago they worked out the new accreditation system for WKF events. Today it is the registration on line. Congratulations for them, congratulations for WKF.
